Directions:
- Sort and rinse the split red lentils and let soak for 20 minutes. Strain the soaked lentils and add to a pot with the water or stock. Bring to a boil. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, sauté onion until translucent. Add curry powder, garam masala and ginger and cook 1 minute. Add tomatoes and cook until soft and/or heated through, about 5 minutes. Combine the spices and onions with the lentils. Cook until lentils are soft and desired consistency has been reached.
- Notes
- Use cumin and/or coriander as a substitute for the garam masala.
- As it cools, the dahl will thicken nicely. Tastes great as leftovers!
- This dish freezes very well.
- Mix this up any way you see fit. Many different spices can be employed depending on your individual style.
- Add some cayenne or hot sauce to increase the heat.
- Add more or less spinach if you would like. Drain the spinach if you like a thicker dahl.
